THE BREVARD NEWS i * . ? % ? "* .. VOL. XXXII BREVARD, NORTH CAROLINA, JUNE 16, 1927 No. 24 CREAMERY WOULD BE PROFITABLE IS BELIEF OF OFFICAL 1 ,000 Additional Cows would Be Needed Within a Year'i Time ? Skim Milk for Pigi PROFIT OF $100 PER COW PER YEAR IS POSSIBLE' Meetings To Be Held ttt School ? Houses Over County in the j Near Future W. L. Clevenger of Raleigh, nit-: at the Chamber of Commerce on Tuesday evening with a group ofj citizens who are interested in the! organization of a creamery in Tran- j sylvania county. This meeting was held following a discussion of the; subject at last week's directors meet- [ inn of the chamber, at which a com- ! mittee was appointed to investigate the possibilities of such an enter- j prise. Sufficient interest was mani- ; fest in the subject to warrant Chair- ,! man C. E. Lowe extending an invi- : tation to Mr. Clevenger to come to j Brevard for the purpose of explain- ! ing working plans of the successful ! creameries that are operating in this I state. Mr. Clevenger is conversant with j every detail of the creamery busi- j ness from the preliminary steps of, an organization to marketing the fin-, ished product, and his interview con- j vinced the ousiness men who attend ed the meeting that a creamery op- , eratin? in Transylvania county under I efficient management could be made | a profitable enterprise. He contend- J ed that business, started in a small , way would show the farmer profits j that would justify greater interest, I and that within a few years one j thousand additional cows would be j contributing cream to the creamery j with an average profit of $100 per cow per year, thus bringing to the ! farmers of the county $100,000 ad-j ditional annually, with skim milk at home on which to feed pigs, etc. i This is a business well worth in vestigating, the business men de clared, and the Chamber of Com merce committee, composed of C. E. Lowe, Thos. H. Shipman, Jas. F. Barrett and Julian A .Glazener have undertaken to arrange for meetings in every school house in the move ment and to create sentiment in favor of the organization of a cream ery when it is believed enough cream can be obtained to make the j operation profitable. MONTCLOVE OWNERS! VERY ENTHUSIASTIC i For the purpose of going into ; detail regarding the continuous plr of carrying out the improvements < Montclove, Brevard's favored re dential section on the links of the Country Club properties, an import-) ant meeting of local and out of town : capitalists was held on last Tuesday in offices of William E. Breese, , local attorney. At this meeting, which was called for the purpose of discussing the letting of contracts \ for water mains and light lines, grading and the completion of sand ing and graveling the streets, much favorable comment was heard. The out of town members of the board j were especially delighted to note the | degree of local interest and pride in Montclove and expressed themselves in a manner which showed their keen appreciation of Brevard's pride in this beautiful section. Out of town members of the board of directors of Montclove at-' tending this meeting were: E. E. ? Groves, secretary-treasurer of the Groves Manufacturing company, Gastonia; H. C. Case, Florida capi talist of Fort Myers, Fla.; \V. A. Colrman. former mayor of Colum bia. S. C.; D. G. Ellison, stocks and bonds, Columbia, S. C. ; T. B. Pcarce, wholesale merchant and ex senator. Columbia, S C. ; W. B. . Du-I pr:-e, wholesale merchant, also of Columbia, while A. G. Myers, banker, am! cotton mill operator and R. G. ! Cherry, attorney, were represented by proxy by Hugh Pinnix, Gastonia and Brevard. These gentlemen readily agreed, with the local member of the board j of directors, that Montclove, on the links, according to a natural course of events. its scenic splendor, natur al beauty of contour and the fact that the social and exclusive ele ments of country club life so force fully enters into the formation of th< "ideal in home lift- surroundings, w'll within a very short time bring forth an era of pnimanont and beau tiful home construction in Brevard.

I, lifted CROP PROSPECTS GOOD IN COUNTY Survey Made Over Entire County Give^ Belief That a Good Yield Will Be Mode (By I.. A. AMMON) The editor hat! asked for a few lilies regarding crop conditions, s? lu re we t;o : t.asi visit to Boylston section showed work up to time, ami spring crop-- looking very good. Mr. Tay lor ? potatoes were among the best <>. [he early plantings. Mr. Will Isaynard feels that his truck crops ..mi corn will be the best in years. Clover and manure much the cause. Mr. Gordon King has no kick coming except that the freeze in April killed his very promising wheat and rye. Mr. Tom llollingsworth feels will pleasecr with his spring work. Blantyre section shows no in crease in crops, but reports are all good. Hay crop cut short by early dry weather. Corn looking good, and truck crops extra good. Penrose section has the best snl around crops of grains that we have. The freeze and rust has not hit them so hard. The Talleys have some of the best wheat in the cmin ty. The corn crop here is bursting itself to outdo the rest of the coun ty. Potatoes look good, and pros pects of an increase in all lines. Little River, like Penrose, boasts of good crops as a whole. Potato crop not in the increase as in other parts of the county, but their plantings look like two hundred to the acre. Corn crop extra good and growing fast. Fall truck indications small at present. Clover and soy beans are increasing in this section, and the future looks bright for big yields. Davidson River will not lay down to any section. Some of them show "hay, corn, oats, rye, etc., with any section. I would put Mr. T. A. English's oats ahead of any I have seen, and I believe^ he will dig an acre of potatoes with any man in the county. Bfevnrd and neighborhood are all feeling fine over the nice rains, and the best crops in years as a whole. More truck than usual and it doing extra well. Clough Farm is willing to talk corn with John Bishop or any other man, and they have over a hundred acres. Oat Shipman is not lagging behind regardless of the extra work on his hands. Mr. H. L. Allison and neighbors are feeling fin? over their crops as a whole. Connestee section is doing more farming than usual, with a good scattering of truck crops, and all, looks extra well. Raxters, Bag wells, Whitmire, and Glazener were feeling jubilant the last time seen. Selica to Cherryfield section is in line with the rest, and much hard work has been done to prepare good seed beds, atld the results are good crops. Not much increase in any cue crop. Cherryfield, the potato section, has suffered mostly from the frost. Mr. Berry ni an planted ten acres of potatoes to corny as the frost killed the potatoes dead to the tubers. Others have planted small lots to corn. The rye crop was hard hit, and Mr. Jimmie Whitmire thinks there will not be enough new crop rye to seed with this ^ fall. Much activity in truck and if the cotton growers over the South have any money to buy with, this truck line will be busy this fall. Middle Fork is increasing its truck, and many new spots have been added to the small fields. The better highways is the reason. Some talk of late cabbage, and about all 1 have heard. Rosman section has some corn that will rate with the best for its age. Good sod land is always hard to beat. No increased forming not iced. Gardens of the workers look ? ood. but had a severe setback with frost. ' ... Lake Toxaway section shows m ( Continued on back page) ST ANBF.RRY WILL PREACH AT EN0N Rev. "Harve" Stanberry will preach at F.non church near Penrose next Sunday morning. This an ai iioiinctment will he of interest to the numerous friends of Rev.

I Let's fight, so wo can product* acres I iof late beans, The entire l.'nited ' 'States crop <'f heans aiid potatoes! looks short till weather conditions | change. I.ate beans look good for money makers. Entire truck husi- 1 ness is light this year. Talking to a farmer about grow- 1 inn sugar beets, lie stated that he was not interested in this crop, as he was enjoying- seeing- his corn, oats, rye and hay crops pro*v. Pass.- , illg his place later and seeing one of the county's best pieces of rye, corn, oats, grass and clover, and an acre' of potatoes 1 will match any other in the county, one could understand i why the farmer was so interested in what he was growing.. But as to dairying, that was different, and Mr. Farmer was at once interested. In covering the county, I thought I would try to hand out some hon ors as to who has the best corn, etc. 1 After seeing the various fields of our ?best farmers,. I have decided to say i that every otie has fine corn and ail i other crops except grasses and grain, j ; Tho bountiful rains so characteristic ' of this valley have made a garden of Eden >ut of the valley, and one can m pass up or down the valley i without feeling like a young calf ! 'having his first si>ell of running, i Thing- look so refreshing, and the atmosphere feels like growing weath er, ai.d all put together, you feel that a pessimist could ncit live in this county. U;-r!e John Bis-.hop has another ' claiming title to the first cabbage. Harley Merrill of Little. River, had a full meal three days before, and I did not ru.-h his patch. Mentioning ! such things, Frank Shuford allows he might claim the first ap- < pie pie from 1927 apples. Few have enough for a pie. C. C. lYongue has corn in tassel, tomatoes J four inches in diameter. Alright I for the first beans next week. F. If. j j Holden brings in 3 new petatoes : |Weiging over a pound. ; The fertilizer plots and acreage at | the County Farm has been finished,] and now we are to see what fertil izers do the best there. Some oth ers have been started on other , farms. j County Farm will soon receive ! [two fema|es. and one 'male Hamp j shire hogs. Also two for R. R. I Fisher, and a spotted Poland China I for Norton Surrett, of Penrose sec- i |tion. Come on fellows, and let's do ! I the high blood business a little more. ' Plenty of room for good pigs. j The Progressive Farmer insists I that we name our best farmer. Give, the County Agent your notion any time you see him. Means crops, homes, care of tools, family, and: (everything pertaining to farmers' [lives. The creamery question is being i 'studied just now, and when all the! ; information is in. action is expected.! Same for sugar beets. 4 PASTURE SPECIALIST ! HERE FOR MEETINGS! ? i J. R. Sams.
